Sigma Gamma Tau, the aerospace honors organization, held a (mandatory) scavenger hunt today. I thought it'd be really gay, but it turned out to be pretty fun. It was really more doing odd tasks than finding things. Her are some of the weirder, more interesting things we did: eat a box of saltine crackers (as a team) in 3 minutes and eat a slice of bread in 30 seconds both without any water, leapfrog across a busy street, pull a Chinese firedrill on a busy street, make a human pyramid in front of the capital building, "ride" horse statues on campus, ask out a random girl by first serenading her with "You've Lost That Loving Feeling" (a la Top Gun), asking to get a room at a fancy hotel for only one hour, ask to join a sorority (even though our entire team was guys), punch in our own order at a fast food restaurant (Wendy's), ask a random person for a sip of their drink, and some other stuff I can't remember. I thought it was really hilarious. It made me realize how much more willing you are to do crazy stuff when you have a camera with you. The camera is both the reason and the justification for doing stuff- like people'll give you weird looks, but then you can say that you're making a movie, and everything's cool... kinda, hahah. Other people thought it was all part of some frat hazing, haha. But yea, I realized that if ever there's a time in your life to mess around and do wacky stuff, it's definitely while you're at college- people just seem a whole lot more accepting or tolerant of absurd behavior at this age and in this environment.
...and on my way home, I saw a bird fighting a squirrel. The squirrel lost and ran away under a car, hahaha.
*Saturday evening, I went to see Texas Revue, the UT-wide talent show. Pretty good, I must say.
